History
Delaware State University is a four-year, state-supported, coed, liberal arts university founded in 1891 as the State College for Colored Students. It was established as a result of the 58th General Assembly of the State of Delaware passing legislation to establish a college for the education of colored students in agriculture and the mechanical arts. This law was built on provisions of the Morrill Acts of 1862 and 1890, which provided for land-grant colleges.
DSU serves as the land-grant institution for the state, providing higher education for the academically challenged and the academically gifted. Delaware State is committed foremost to academic excellence and intellectual competence. It strives to provide and maintain a corps of scholars, lecturers, and educators dedicated to the enlightenment of mankind. The University is now a comprehensive institution, including agricultural, technical, liberal arts, fine arts, business, engineering studies, teacher education, and professional training.
A one-plant facility in 1891, DSU is now a 400-acre campus with seventeen modern buildings, including a science center, a library/learning resource center, an ETV building, and an agricultural center.
